What is the difference between a dataset and a project provisioning type?

Excerpt
nameWhat is the difference between a dataset and a project provisioning type?

Both types are filesets on the filesystem (storage).
The dataset consists of one fileset in /tdc_persist/datasets/.
The project consists of two filesets, one in /tdc_persist/projects/ and the other in /tdc_scratch/projects/.

On AgR eRI login or compute nodes

Symbolic links are:

/agr/projects
/agr/datasets
/agr/scratch

Links are:
/tdc_persist/projects
/tdc_persist/datasets
/tdc_scratch/projects
Mount points are:

/mnt/gpfs/persist/ for both datasets and projects and
/mnt/gpfs/scratch/ for projects temp. working space

Locating legacy data on eRI

In order to ease the transition from HPC to eRI, a legacy link farm has been created, with symbolic links from the legacy paths to the new locations. This is mounted on all eRI nodes (login and compute).

This addresses the problem of the very many legacy scripts which have hardcoded paths to the legacy data locations.For example (fake for now, anticipating these links appearing imminently!)
